1966 Ford Galaxie 500 7-Litre Convertible<\/strong> – The 1965 Ford line was advertised as the \u201cnewest since 1949.\u201d They were indeed all-new cars with new bodies, new perimeter frames, new technology (including slightly curved side-glass), new fashionable boxy styling and vertical headlamps, and new small-block 289 V-8 engines available. Big 427 FE blocks maxed out at 425 hp again, and that was considered \u201cenough\u201d for those who wanted to go very fast.\u00a0The 1966 cars received a mild face-lift with a new roofline on two-door hardtops and a new two-way tailgate on the highly popular full-sized Ford wagons, none of which carried the Galaxie nomenclature. A new Galaxie 500 \u201c7-Litre\u201d two-door hardtop (with the new roofline) was introduced as a performance version, including a cheaper-to-build 428 FE block with 345 hp. The car featured a sports steering wheel of simulated English walnut, bucket seats, a floor shift, low restriction exhausts and non-silenced air cleaner, as well as new power front disc brakes. 1966 saw the Galaxie line \u201ctrident\u201d into three directions; luxury, super luxury and luxury sports.<\/p>\n
